Principles of aerodynamics
involved in the design of the
turbine blades.
When the moving air passes through the
wind turbine, two forces act on its blades.
Velocity Pressure
Hence pressure on the top surface of the
blade is less than the pressure on the bottom
surface.
Low Pressure
Drag force
Wind flow
High Pressure
The Lift force can be maximized by adjusting
the angle of the blades depending on the
wind direction.
